Albums

Summer green and autumn brown

Released 2015 on Mega Dodo Records - Vinyl and cd

For us is an album a big challenge and the ultimate way to present music. So much of the music we love is a part of an album so it was with great enthusiasm we started the work to put together an album. Our ambition was that listen to the record should be like going on a journey. The record starts and ends with an intro and an outro, basically is the same song, which hold together the album as a unit. Between these songs, we had an ambition to show a wide range of different moods and feelings. There are light songs, a waltz, long ambitious songs and shorter novel-like songs. All these became Summer green and autumn brown.

On shipless ocean

Released 2018 on Mega Dodo Records - Vinyl and cd  

I June 2018 it was time to release our second album that we are very proud of. But since it's hard to describe ourselves in positive terms, we take this description from a review:

''On Shipless Ocean is an album that ebbs and flows, as all good albums should. Light translucent moments drift into rich dense textures that evoke an autumnal stillness on a crystal-clear day. Delicate acoustic guitars are moderated by a haunted electronic palette that suggests a sense of tradition and modernity, a pastoral moment glimpsed in the heart of the city.''

..and I observed the blue sky

Released 2022 on Withdrawn records - Vinyl and cd  

Our third album was record was written and recorded during a particularly creative period in 2021 and in the beginning of 2022 and is probably some sort of positive side effect to the pandemic we were plagued by. It may sound like a cliché in these contexts, but we think it's the best we've done so far. 

An Introduction to Us and them

Released 2023 on Fruits de Mer Records - Cd 

Our first compilation and it is focused on our releases on Fruits de Mer records with four favourite tracks released on other labels. 

The Lights and the shadow

Will beleased 15th of September 2025 on Fruits de Mer Records - Vinyl and Cd 

We are very proud of our new album and (of course) think it is the best we done so far. We are so near the songs so it is hard to write anything now. So we borrow the information from Fruits de Mer's homepeage: 

The Swedish-based duo Us and Them have a penchant for vocal harmonies and strong melodies in combination with elements of folk, psychedelia and baroque pop. The songs can be introspective and based on personal experiences, but also expressing timeless and universal stories. They first recorded for Fruits de Mer Records back in 2009 and have been regular visitors to the label since then, most recently with the first CD in our retrospective series 'An Introduction to' – it was a sell-out release.


But now it's time for a new album - released on FdM's 'Friends of the Fish' label.


In the autumn of 2022, Us and Them's third album. "…and I observed the blue sky" was released, an album that broadened Us and Them's musical styles and was born from the isolation that the covid pandemic enforced, as well as the focus that arose from this time. Since then, the duo has released a covers EP, a few singles and collaborated with other artists.


The duo's fourth album is "The Lights and the Shadow", Britt and Anders explain...
"While working on it, the songs were pulling in two directions, partly towards the pastoral and idyllic - a kind of escape from reality and a denial of the world that is going on outside of us - and partly towards a darker, more atmospheric sound; it was as if the album as a whole described the different sides of life - the light that is at best the starting point but with the shadow that is always there and risks falling over our lives at any time, hence the album's title."
